The cigarette lighter fuse in a BMW 525 is located at the rear right side of the trunk. After opening the interior trim panel on the right side of the trunk, you can see it. When replacing it, you can refer to the manual to understand the ampere rating of the cigarette lighter fuse. It's advisable to keep a few spare fuses in the car for easy replacement when needed. However, do not attempt to avoid burnout by increasing the ampere rating of the fuse. The ampere rating for each fuse position is designed based on safety considerations. The cigarette lighter is a device in a car. In the traditional sense, a cigarette lighter draws power from the car's electrical system to heat a metal heating element or wire, providing a flame source for lighting cigarettes. The cigarette lighter socket can typically be configured with a car power inverter, which can be used to charge mobile electronic devices, among other uses. The center spring-loaded contact in the socket is the positive pole, while the side clips are the negative poles. The power is directly connected to the car battery, with the same current and power characteristics as the battery. In addition to lighting cigarettes, the car cigarette lighter can also be equipped with a car power inverter, which converts the car's 12V, 24V, or 48V DC power into 220V/50Hz AC power for use with ordinary electrical appliances. For example, it can be used to charge mobile electronic devices. It is best to use a split-type car power inverter, with the power of the electrical appliance limited to below 150W, ensuring that the output current does not exceed the battery's current capacity.
